Please read this document that outlines the Terms and Conditions (Ts&Cs) of using my website, booking appointments and purhcasing services or products from my business.
Understanding the following will ensure you know what to expect when working with me.

By using the Site, you represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years old.

2. Your responsibilities
As a client of Simone Latta Naturopathy, it is your responsibility to attend consultations on time, be respectful to our practitioner/staff at all times, follow instructions provided by your practitioner, pay fees when due, and provide accurate medical and health information. It is also your responsibility to provide an update of information as it changes and inform your practitioner of any changes in health concerns, including ongoing treatments and medications.
It is important to acknowledge that Naturopathy most likely will not provide you with quick results and my role is to support your long term health and provide you with the tools and education necessary to understand and enhance your own health. I ask that you are aware of this and work with me with an open-mind and realistic expectations around treamtent. It is up to you as the client to be willing to follow advice and provide honest information about your health.
CLIENT INTAKE FORMS: Upon booking an initial consult with Simone Latta Naturopathy, you will recieve an Initial Client Intake form via email. We kindly ask that new clients complete this form 24 hours prior to your scheduled appointment. If an intake form has not been completed prior to your appointment, it will need to be completed during the consultation at the expense of the scheduled consultation time. Unfortunately, no extra time can be allocated and full fees will be charged out of respect to both the practitioner and other clients. Refusal and/or failure to complete the intake form will mean that your appointment will not go ahead.
OVERSEAS CLIENTS: Where you are based outside of Australia, it is your responsibility to ensure that the Products and Services ordered by you can be ordered, imported and used where you are based. We will not be responsible for any orders being confiscated or otherwise not being permitted to be provided to you as a result of the local laws in your area.
REFUSAL OF SERVICES: if you fail to comply with these Terms, we will cease providing Products and Services to you at our own discretion. Simone Latta Naturopathy does not accept any form of aggressive or inappropriate behaviour. Your consultation will end immediately and a 100% fee will be required.
3. Services
Simone Latta Naturopathy priovides online Naturopathy consultations and programs with ongoing assistance to support health.
Products are provided via orders placed with third party supplies such as vital.ly, Ariya Health, Oborne Health Suppliers, Natural Script etc. If you purchase from such third party supplies, you are agreeing to comply with their Ts&Cs and any applicable laws.
CODE OF CONDUCT: Simone Latta understands that health practitioners not within the ambit of the Australian Health Practitioners’ Regulation (AHPRA) must follow the Code of Conduct.

All bookings are made via Simple Clinic.
Payments via these third-party partners do involve data collection which may include, but is not limited to your name, credit card number, security code, expiration date, billing address and postcode. Any issues with this please contact me so we can arrange an alternative.
A 50% deposit is required at the time of booking. The remaining payment will be invoiced to you after your consultation and is required to be paid within 48 hours after your consult.
Failing to pay the remaining fee within this time will result in a warning. If this continues to happen, there may be additional charges and/or suspension of services.
All prices on my website are in Australian dollars and are not subject to GST.
Prices are subject to change at any time. You will be notified if this occurs & any appointments with deposits already paid for will not be affected. Any discounted prices are only available for the specified time of sale.

Failing to show up to your scheduled appointment unfortunately will result in a 100% cancellation fee.
We appreciate your understanding with this as there are clients who may be waiting for an appointment.
I understand sometimes circumstances outside of your control may have prevented you from attending your appointment, in this case please notify me as soon as possible so we can discuss alternative options.
Clients arriving late to their consultation will only recieve the remaining scheduled session time unless previously organised with the practitioner. This is because there is likely another client scheduled soon after your appointment. The full consultation fee will be charged.
